why doesn't this song have any comments? it is, in my opinion, the best true country song ever written. it's about a grown man whose mother always told him he was "so much like his dad" when he was a kid. now that he's grown, his girlfriend/fiance/wife is leaving him. he asks his mom to tell him word-for-word what his father used to tell her to keep them together, because since he's "so much like his dad," his mother must have felt the same way as his girlfriend in the past.

wow you're right. Don't know if I'd say best country song ever written, but it is, at least lyrically, quite beautifully written.
